Day in summary

[aesmael]

Year's dark days arrive
Our home becomes
all hours, all places,
immersed in winter's shade

* * *

The hour of birds
Dominion theirs
Magpies, crows,
Dark-winged birds
About their business

Squawking lorikeets
Perched above in rightful protest
Of a fox like me
But they are too pretty to eat

* * *

Night comes early
Blending shade and light
Earth and air, water falling
Guides our path
Charges, exultant

Wanting to reach out
Call to lightning
But not yet

I don't like winter, but this is beautiful!

I love this, especially the second and third paragraphs.

Hurrah for winter.
